11 Projectile Motion Projectile motion is the name we give to the motion of an object with a constant acceleration in one direction, and no acceleration in the other directions, like an object moving near the surface of the earth, if we neglect air resistance. There is no acceleration in the horizontal direction, and the acceleration in the vertical direction is the same for all objects. The vertical and horizontal motions can be considered to act independently of each other.

12 Interactive Question A tennis ball is thrown upward at an angle from point A and follows a parabolic path as shown.

17 For Projectile Motion In this case, if we define +y as being vertical, v y 2 = v y1 g(t 2 t 1 ) v y 2 2 = v y 1 2 2g(y 2 y 1 ) y 2 y 1 = (1/2)(v y 2 + v y1 )(t 2 t 1 ) y 2 y 1 = v y 1 (t 2 t 1 ) (1/2)g(t 2 t 1 )2 y 2 y 1 = v y 2 (t 2 t 1 ) + (1/2)g(t 2 t 1 )2 In the horizontal direction, there is no acceleration, x 2 x 1 = v x (t 2 t 1 )

18 Interactive Question A pilot drops a bomb from a plane flying horizontally. When the bomb hits the ground, the horizontal location of the plane will A) be behind the bomb. B) be over the bomb. C) be in front of the bomb. D) depend on the speed of the plane when the bomb was released.

19 Problem: You are working as a consultant on a video game designing a bomb site for a World War I airplane. In this game, the plane you are flying is traveling horizontally at 30.0 m/s at an altitude of 150 m when it drops a bomb. You need to determine how far from the target you should drop the bomb and at what angle the bomb site should be set to accurately hit a target.

20 Focus the Problem: Speed = 30.0 m/s Altitude = 150 m What is the problem asking for: (1) How far (horizontally) will the bomb travel? (2) What will be the angle between a horizontal line from where the plane is when the bomb is released to where the bomb hits? Outline the Approach: Use the kinematic equations for constant acceleration in the vertical direction and no acceleration in the horizontal direction. The only important object is the bomb. The two important times are when the bomb is released and when it hits. The horizontal distance and altitude give the correct angle.

21 Describe the Physics: Draw physics diagrams and define all quantities uniquely t 1 = 0 s x 1 = 0 m v x = 30.0 m/s a x = 0.0 m/s 2 y 1 = 1500 m v y1 = 0.0 m/s a y = g m/s 2 +y t 2 =? s v 1 y = 0 x = 0 Which defined quantity is your Target variable? θ v 2 x 2 =? m v x = 30.0 m/s a x = 0.0 m/s 2 y 2 = 0 m v y2 =? m/s a y = g m/s 2 φ +x

22 Quantitative Relationships: v 2 = v 1 + a(t 2 t 1 ) v 22 = v a(x 2 x 1 ) x 2 x 1 = (1/2)(v 2 + v 1 ) (t 2 t 1 ) x 2 x 1 = v 1 (t 2 t 1 )+ (1/2)a(t 2 t 1 ) 2 x 2 x 1 = v 2 (t 2 t 1 ) (1/2)a(t 2 t 1 ) 2 PLAN the SOLUTION Construct Specific Equations Unknowns

24 Problem: For the previous problem, calculate a) where the plane is when the bomb hits. b) the velocity of the bomb when it hits the ground.

25 Problem: You are watching a baseball game on television, when the batter hits a home run. The ball sails over the 390 foot sign on the center-left fence. It eventually lands about 50 feet beyond the fence and about 50 feet high into the stands. On the replay you notice that the ball left the bat at an angle of about 35. You begin to wonder how fast the ball left the bat. Since you are a bright physics student, you decide that you will just sit down and figure it out.

26 Problem: Neglecting air resistance, at what angle should an object be launched in order for it to go the maximum distance on level ground?

27 Interactive Question If an object is thrown into the air near the earth and eventually lands on the ground at the same level that it started, what variable(s) are required to determine how long it is in the air? A) x velocity (v x ) B) x displacement (x x 0 ) C) initial y velocity (v y0 ) D) y displacement (y y 0 ) E) More than one of the above variables

28 If an object is thrown into the air near the earth and eventually lands on the ground at a different level that it started, what variable(s) are required to determine how long it is in the air? 1) x velocity (v x ) 2) x displacement (x x 0 ) 3) initial y velocity (v y0 ) 4) y displacement (y y 0 ) A) 1 and 2 B) 1 and 3 C) 2 and 4 D) 3 and 4 E) either (A) or (D) Interactive Question

29 Interactive Question A battleship simultaneously fires two shells toward two enemy ships, one close by (A), and one for away (B).

A B A) A B) B C) They both get hit at the same time. D) It is impossible to tell from the information given

30 Problem: A hunter aims his gun at a monkey hanging on a branch. Just as the hunter shoots, the monkey drops from the branch to avoid the bullet. What happens? +y x=0 v 0b θ x=x m y 0 y=0 +x t=0 when the hunter shoots and the monkey drops v 0b v 0by = v 0b sinθ v 0bx = v 0b cosθ

31 x = v x t y = v y0 t (1/2)gt 2 Projectile Motion is Parabolic For simplicity, set x 0 = y 0 = 0 and t 0 = 0 t = x/v x y = v y0 x/v x (1/2)g (x/v x ) 2 y = (v y0 /v x ) x (g/2v x2 ) x 2 This is the equation of a parabola: y = Ax + Bx 2

32 Relative Velocities We can use vectors to solve problems involving two objects different velocities. The use of proper subscripts can be very helpful for sorting out which velocities are in which reference frame. For instance if a plane is flying through the wind, we have the velocity of the plane relative to the ground v pg, the velocity of the plane relative to the wind v pw, and the velocity of the wind relative to the ground v wg. When adding the relative velocities, always put the subscripts that are the same next to each other in the addition: v pg = v pw + v wg

33 Problem: A person looking out of a window of a stationary train notices that rain drops are falling at a rate of 5.0 m/s. When the train is moving, the drops are make an angle of 25 with the vertical. How fast is the train moving? v RT =? m/s v RG = 5.0 m/s θ = 25 v TG =? m/s Using the subscript notation, we know that v TG = v TR + v RG = v RT + v RG

34 Problem: A bicyclist is traveling 10 m/s north and a jogger is running 3 m/s at an angle of 40 west of north. a) What is their velocity with respect to each other? b) Does their relative velocity depend on their relative location? v BG = 10 m/s 40 v JG = 3 m/s +y North +x East

41 Some Definitions used in Rotation Rigid bodies: Objects that have a definite unchanging shape. Fixed axis of rotation: A single-nonchanging axis around which the object rotates. Translational motion: Motion with a fixed direction of net force. Rotational motion: Motion around an axis of rotation

42 Angular Displacement Consider an object rotating about a fixed axis from point P 1 at time t 1 to point P 2 at time t 2. The points are both the same distance r from the center of the circle. The object rotates through an angle θ, and covers an arclength s. The angular displacement, in radians is, θ = s/r Usually we set counterclockwise rotations to have a positive angular displacement and clockwise rotations to have a negative angular displacement. P 2 θ r s P 1 Note that 360º = 2π radians.

43 Interactive Question Steve (S) and his brother Mark (M) are riding on a merrygo-round as shown. M A) They have the same speed, but different angular velocities. B) They have the same speed, and the same angular velocities C) They have different speeds and different angular velocities. D) They have different speeds and the same angular velocity S

45 Angular Displacement and Angular Velocity Angular Displacement: θ = θ 2 θ 1 Often (as in previous slide), just denoted as θ Angular Velocity: ω = θ / t The instantaneous angular velocity is given by rad θ dθ ω = lim = sec = s-1 t 0 t dt

46 Relationship Between Angular and Linear Velocity r = r cosθ i + r sinθ j v = dr/dt = r d(cosθ)/dt i + r d(sinθ)/dt j = r sinθ dθ/dt i + r cosθ dθ/dt j = r dθ/dt ( sinθ i + cosθ j) = rω t^ This is the velocity in the tangential direction with magnitude: v = rω

47 The time it takes to move around the circumference of a circle is called the period, T. At a constant speed, v v = r/ t = 2πR/T where R is the radius of the circle. T = 2πR/v The frequency f is defined as the rate of rotation, f = 1/T ω = 2πf {s -1 = (2π rad/cycle)(cycles/s)}

48 Angular Acceleration Angular Acceleration: α = ω / t The instantaneous angular acceleration is given by ω dω α = lim = = t 0 t dt 2 d θ 2 dt rad sec 2 = s -2

49 Angular and Linear Acceleration a = a T + a C ( ) r t r t j i t j i t j i t t t t v a ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) 2 sin cos sin cos ) cos sin ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ω α ω α θ θ ω α θ θ θ θ ω ω θ θ ω r r v r v r dt d dt d v dt dr dt d r dt d v dt r d dt d v dt dv dt v d dt t d = = + = + + = + + = + = = =

50 Centripetal and Tangential Acceleration a C = ω 2 r = v 2 /r with a direction toward the center of the circle. This gives the object s change in direction. An object moving at a uniform (constant) speed, but turning in a circle has this acceleration directed toward the center of the circle. Centripetal means center-seeking. a T = rα with a direction along the tangent of the circle. This gives the object s change in speed. The total acceleration is the vector sum of the two accelerations: a = a c + a T which has a magnitude a = ( a c2 + a T2 ) 1/2

51 A More Pictorial Look at Uniform Circular Motion Uniform circular motion is the motion of an object traveling at a constant (uniform) speed on a circular path. v 1 = v 2 = v, r 1 = r 2 = r θ = θ r 1 v 1 r2 v/v = r /r v = v r /r v/ t = (v/r) r/ t = (v/r)v = v 2 /r a c = v 2 /r θ θ v 2 v 2 r 1 v 1 θ r θ v r2 The direction of this acceleration is toward the center of the circle. (Note the direction of the change of velocity).

52 Interactive Question A rock is twirled on a string at a constant speed. The direction of its acceleration at point P is P A) B) C) D) E)

53 Interactive Question You and a friend are riding on a merry-go-round. You are sitting on a horse that is twice as far from the center of the merry-go-round as your friend. How does your centripetal acceleration relate to that of your friend s? A) It is one-fourth as much B) It is one-half as much C) It is the same D) It is twice as much E) It is four times as much

54 Rotational Kinematics The definitions of the angular quantities are analogous to the definitions of linear quantities with the following substitutions. x θ v ω a α Consequently: ω 2 = ω 1 + α t ω 22 =ω α θ θ = ω 1 t+ (1/2)α t 2 θ = (1/2)(ω 1 + ω 2 ) t

55 Problem: A compact disk with a radius of 6.0 cm starts from rest and accelerates to its final velocity of 3.50 rev/s in 1.50 s. a) What is the disk s average angular acceleration? b) How many rotations does the CD make while coming up to speed? c) What is the final speed of the outside of the disk? d) At this speed, what is the centripetal acceleration of the outside of the disk?

56 Vector Nature of Angular Quantities The angular equivalent of all the linear quantities that are vectors are also vectors. (Actually, they are pseudovectors). The direction of the vector is chosen by the right hand rule. ω r v v = ω r v = ωr sin θ = ωr sin 90 = ωr a c = ω v a c = ω 2 r = v 2 /r

57 1. Angular displacement is not really a vector because it does not act like a vector. In particular, two rotations performed one after another are not necessarily commutative when the rotations take place along different axes of rotation. We call angular displacement a pseudo-vector. 2. The relationship between angular quantities and linear quantities (like v = ωr, a T = Rα, and a C = ω 2 R), are not vector equations. The linear quantities do not point in the same direction as the angular quantities. For fixedbody rotation, the direction of ω and α will not change but the direction of v, a T, and a C will constantly be changing.

58 Interactive Question The record playing on the turntable is rotating clockwise as seen from above. After turning it off, the turntable is slowing down, but hasn t stopped yet. The direction of the acceleration at point P is P A) B) C) D) E)

A) It is possible to have a changing centripetal acceleration and a constant tangential acceleration. B) It is possible to have a constant centripetal acceleration and a constant tangential acceleration. C) It is possible to have a constant centripetal acceleration and a changing tangential acceleration. D) More than one of the above is true. E) None of the above.
